Fittingly titled Plays Well With Others, the collection comes a week before Collins' first U.S. tour in years kicks off.

The 59-track set will be released on four CDs and as a digital download. The title comes from a T-shirt gifted to the singer-songwriter and drummer by former Genesis touring drummer Chester Thompson, a nod to Collins' willingness to perform with a wide variety of other artists.

"Some would say I've lived a charmed life. I've done what I wanted for most of it, and got paid well for doing something I'd have done for nothing," Collins notes in a press release for the set. "Playing the drums. During that time I've played with most of my heroes, most have become close friends. Over these four CDs you'll find a mere smattering of those moments. I thank the artists for letting me put this CD together, no easy task!"

The box gathers material from his early days with the psychedelic band Flaming Youth in the '60s and his celebrated '70s work with Brand X, Brian Eno, Robert Fripp and John Cale to his '80s superstardom with Genesis and as a solo artist, as well as big-band collaborations with Quincy Jones and Tony Bennett.

Collins' Not Dead Yet, Live!tour, his first major North American run in 12 years and his first U.S. performance in eight, kicks off on Oct. 5 in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., and wraps in Los Angeles on Oct. 28.
